You may request modification of your Air Quality Pennit through informal means pursuant to NCGS 150B-22. This request must be submitted in writing to the Director and must identify the specific provisions or issues for which the modification is sought. Please note that this Air Quality Pennit will become final and binding regardless of a request for informal modification unless a request for a hearing is also made under NCGS lS0B-23.

The construction of new air pollution emission source( s) and associated air pollution control device( s ), or modifications to the emission source(s) and air pollution control device(s) described in this permit must be covered under an Air Quality Permit issued by the Division of Air Quality prior to construction unless the Perrnittee has fulfilled the requirements of NCGS l 43-2 l 5-108A(b) and received written approval from the Director of the Division of Air Quality to commence construction. Failure to receive an Air Quality Permit or written approval prior to commencing construction is a violation of NCGS 143-215.l0SA and may subject the Permittee to civil or criminal penalties as described in NCGS 143-215.114A and 143-215.114B.

Person County has triggered increment tracking under PSD for PM-10 and SO2. This modification will result in an increase in 0.048 pounds per hour of PM-10. 1bis permit modification does not conswne or expand the increment for S02.

This Air Quality Permit shall be effective from November 27, 2018 until September 30, 2023, is nontransferable to future owners and operators, and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified therein.

Monitoring/Recoi·dkeeping ~15A NCAC 02Q .0508(f)] e. Compliance with the particulate limit in Section 2.1 A.5.a shall be determined using the PM CEMS. A

measured exceedance of O .030 pounds per million Btu heat input (30-boiler operating day rolling average) or 0.30 pounds per MWh (30-boiler operating day rolling average) shall be a violation of the corresponding emission standards in Section 2.1 A.5.a.

1. The Permittee shall install, certify, operate, and maintain a PM CEMS and record the output of the PM CEMS according to the applicable Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) standards in §63.lOOlO(i) of 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU, as specified in Section 2.2.B.2.cc. The PM CEMS shall meet the requirements of Performance Specification PS-11 of Appendix B of 40 CFR Part 60. The Permittee shall have on file with the director an approved quality assurance program, and shall submit to the director within the time period of his request for his approval a revised quality assurance program to include the provisions of 40 CFR 60, Appendix F, Procedure 2 for the PM CEMS.

11. The PM emission rate shall be determined based on a 30-boiler operating day rolling average of the hourly arithmetic average emissions concentrations using the CEMS outlet data for each boiler operating day (as defined below), except for data obtained during periods of startup or shutdown. Periods of malfunction shall be included in the emissions calculations.

A boiler operating day means a 24-hour period that begins at midnight and ends the following midnight during which any fuel is combusted at any time in the EGU, excluding startup periods or shutdown periods. It is not necessary for the fuel to be combusted the entire 24-hour period.

iii. Data from the PM CEMS shall be reduced to I -hour averages computed from four or more data points equally spaced over each 1-hour period, except during periods when calibration, quality assurance, or maintenance activities pursuant to provisions of 40 CFR Part 63 are being performed. During these periods, a valid hourly average shall consist of at least two data points with each representing a 15-minute period. Alternatively, an arithmetic or integrated 1-hour average of CEMS data may be used. Time periods for averaging are defined in §63.2. [§.63.8(g)(2)J

iv. PM CEMS monitor availability shall be calculated and reported.

v. The Permittee shall record the output of the PM CEMS as specified in Section 2.2 B.2.ee.

If the results of the arithmetic 30-boiler operating day rolling average PM CEMS concentration exceeds the limit in this section or any of the above requirements are not met, the Permittee shall be deemed in noncompliance with 1 SA NCAC 02D .0536.

Reporting [15A NCAC 02Q .0508(f)] f. The Permittee shall submit excess emissions and monitoring system perfonnance reports for PM in

accordance with the reporting requirements given in Section 2.1 A.7 .d postmarked on or before January 30 of each calendar year for the preceding three-month period between October and December, April 30 of each calendar year for the preceding three-month period between January and March, July 30 of each calendar year for the preceding three-month period between April and June, and October 30 of each calendar year for the preceding three-month period between July and September. The compliance report shall include, at a minimum, the in formation required in 40 CPR 63 .10 and contain the information specified in Section 2.2 B.2.ss, along with all 30-boiler operating day rolling average excess emissions (pounds per million Btu or pounds per MWh) using the CEMS outlet data, including periods exempted du.ring periods of startup and shutdown.

g. The results of any stack test shall be reported within 30 days, and the test report shall be submitted within 60 days after the test.

a. Visible emissions from the utility boiler units shall not exceed the following:

ID No. Average Annual

Opacity

ES-Unit 1 15 percent

ES-Unit 2 20 percent

ES-Unit 3A 25 percent

ES-Unit 3B 25 percent

b. The Permittee shall calculate each day an annual average opacity value for the most recent 365-day period ending with the end of the previous day. The average is the sum of the measured non-overlapping one­hour averages of opacity determined only while the unit is in operation divided by the number of such measured non-overlapping one-hour averages. Start-up, shut-down, and non-operating time shall not be included in the annual average opacity calculation, but malfunction time shall be included. The hourly opacity values shall be determined using the PM CEMS hourly average output values as follows:

Where:

(Z) Opacity [average for each hour] = (A) (Y)

A = Actual PM CEMS output ( average for each hour, in milligrams per cubic meter [ mg/m3]);

Y =The average PM CEMS output value (in mg/m3) established during the initial PM CEMS PS-11

certification procedure at or near, but no greater than, the annual average opacity (AAO) limit. A concurrent Method 9 test shall be conducted during the PM CEMS measurements to determine opacity. At least 60 minutes of PM CEMS and Method 9 data shall be averaged.

Z = The average concurrent Method 9 opacity readings obtained during the initial PM CEMS PS-11 certification procedure corresponding to the PM CEMS measurements for Y above.

Recordkeeping/Reporting [15ANCAC 02D .0536] c. The Permittee shall submit a report showing the calculated annual average opacity of each unit and the

Page 60: MICHAEL ABRACZINSKAS Ash/documents/Coal Ash/air-quality... · Mr. Jason Haynes November 27, 2018 Page 2 You may request modification of your Air Quality Pennit through informal means

Air Quality Permit No. 01001 T56 Page 53

The Permittee shall operate all continuous monitoring systems (CMS) during startup, except during periods of bypass of the main stack as provided in §63. lO0lO(a)( 4). For startup of a unit, clean fuels must be used as defined in §63.10042 for ignition. Once the unit converts to firing coal, the Permittee shall engage all of the applicable control technologies except the SCR. The Permittee shall start the SCR system appropriately to comply with relevant standards applicable during nonnal operation. The Permittee shall comply with all applicable emissions limits at all times except for periods that meet the applicable definitions of startup and shutdown in Subpart UUUUU. The Pennittee shall keep records during startup periods.

ii. If the Permittee chooses to use just one set of sorbent traps to demonstrate compliance with the applicable Hg emission limit, the Permittee shall comply with the limit at all times; otherwise, the Permittee shall comply with the applicable emission limit at all times except for startup and shutdown periods.

m. The Permittee shall collect monitoring data during startup periods, as specified in §63.10020(a) and ( e). The Perm:ittee shall keep records during startup periods, as provided in §§63.10032 and 63.10021(h). The Pennittee shall provide reports concerning activities and startup periods, as specified in §63.1001 l(g) and §63.10021 (h) and (i). All periods of bypass of the main stack shall be reported as deviations as provided in §63.10010(a)(4)(ii).

(§63.999l(a)(l) and Table 3 to Subpart UUUUU]

e. During periods of shutdown of an EGU:

Shutdown means the period in which cessation of operation of an EGU is initiated for any purpose. Shutdown begins when the EGU no longer generates electricity or makes useful thermal energy (such as heat or steam) for industrial, commercial, heating, or cooling purposes or when no coal, liquid oil, syngas, or solid oil-derivedfael is beingfired in the EGU, whichever is earlier. Shutdown ends when the EGU no longer generates electricity or makes usefal thennal energy (such as steam or heat) for industrial, commercial, heating, or cooling purposes, and no fuel is being fired in the EG U Any fraction of an hour in which shutdown occurs constitutes a full hour of shutdown.

1. The Pennittee shall operate all CMS during shutdown, except during periods of bypass of the main stack as provided in §63.10010( a)( 4 ). The Permittee shall also collect appropriate data, and shall calculate the pollutant emission rate for each hour of shutdown for those pollutants for which a CMS is used. While firing coal during shutdown, the Permittee shall vent emissions to the main stack(s) and operate all applicable control devices and continue to operate those control devices after the cessation of coal being fed into the EGU and for as long as possible thereafter considering operational and safety concerns as provided for bypass of the main stack in §63.10010(a)(4). In any case, the pennittee shall operate the controls when necessary to comply with other standards made applicable to the EGU by a permit limit or a rule other than Subpart UUUUU and that require operation of the control devices. All periods of bypass of the main stack shall be reported as deviations as provided in §63.10010(a)(4)(ii).

n. If, in addition to the fuel used prior to initiation of shutdown, another fuel must be used to support the shutdown process, that additional fuel shall be one or a combination of the clean fuels defined in §63.10042 and shall be used to the maximum extent possible taking into account considerations such as not compromising boiler or control device integrity.

m. The Permittee shall comply with all applicable emission limits at all times except during startup periods and shutdown periods at which time the Permittee shall meet the work practice standards. The Pennittee shall collect monitoring data during shutdown periods, as specified in §63.10020(a). The

[§63.10021 (a)]

s. Except as otherwise provided in §63.10020(c), if the Permittee uses a CEMS to measure S02, PM, HCl, HF, or Hg emissions, or uses a sorbent trap monitoring system to measure Hg emissions, the Pennittee shall demonstrate continuous compliance by using all quality-assured hourly data recorded by the CEMS (or sorbent trap monitoring system) and the other required monitoring systems ( e.g., flow rate, CO2, 02, or moisture systems) to calculate the arithmetic average emissions rate in units of the standard on a continuous 30-boiler operating day ( or, if alternate emissions averaging is used for Hg, 90-boiler operating day) rolling average basis, updated at the end of each new boiler operating day. The Permittee shall use Equation 8 to Subpart UUUUU to determine the 30- ( or, if applicable, 90-) boiler operating day rolling average.

L~1 Her1 Boiler operating day average = - (Eq. 8) n

Where:

Her; is the hourly emissions rate for houri and n is the number of hourly emissions rate values collected over 30- ( or, if applicable, 90-) boiler operating days.

[§63.10021 (b )]

t. The Permittee shall conduct periodic performance tune-ups of the EGUs, as specified in paragraphs (e)(l) through (9) of §63.10021. The Permittee shall perform an inspection of the burner at least once every 36 calendar months unless the EGU employs neural network combustion optimization during normal operations in which case an inspection of the burner and combustion controls shall be performed at least once every 48 calendar months. If the EGU is offiine when a deadline to perform the tune-up passes, the tune-up work practice requirements shall be performed within 30 days after the re-start of the affected unit. [§63.1002l{e)]

u. The Pennittee shall follow the startup or shutdown requirements as given in Table 3 to the Subpart for each coal-firedEGU and comply with all applicable requirements in §63.1001 l(g). [§§63.100050), 63.1001 l(g) and §63.1002l(h)]

v. The Pennittee shall determine the fuel whose combustion produces the least uncontrolled emissions, taking safety considerations into account, i.e., the cleanest fuel, either natural gas or distillate oil, that is available on site or accessible nearby for use during periods of startup or shutdown. The cleanest fuel, either natural gas or distillate oil, for use during periods of startup or shutdown determination may take safety considerations into account. [§§63.1001 l(t)(l) and (2)]

The Permittee shall be deemed in noncompliance with 15ANCAC 02D .1111 if the continuous compliance
